Rank the Codes in NSW

[leeroy*NRL*]

Interesting take by the journalist on Offsiders this morning re: rugby in Sydney. I didn’t realise the elite private schools had taken aussie rules on. And he questioned whether anyone new if there was a Waratahs game on last night??

Yep the sporting landscape in Sydney has changed massively in 5 -10 years.

UNION Is being attacked by AFL>
Not so much AFL attacking League.

if you look at the numbers, AFL has hammered where Union Supporters are, they have not won yet,
but are def making a dent..

And we almost never get regular AFL matches on Ch 7. Old movies from the 80s rate better for 7 than a game of AFL in NSW. Always shown on 7mate.

So the AFL gets 4 games a week live on either Channel 7 or 7mate in Sydney/NSW. How does soccer and rugby compare? Go on... don’t dodge that question/reality.

None of the main radio/tv Channels get behind AFL in a big way.

Hmm, just live AFL radio broadcasts every round on Triple M, the ABC and AFL Nation in Sydney.

The AFL football shows are on at 1am here if they are even on at all lol..

And how many soccer or rugby shows are even shown on FTA in Sydney. For those curious at home... it’s none.

AFL and Union on a domestic level (i would put Union in front still) they look down and out,
but that is because they are losing culture and pathetically ran at the moment, Union still holds a strong presence.

In saying AFL are taking it to Union Heartland areas in big ways.

I guarantee if the storm had a higher crowd than every AFL game in Melbourne we wouldn't hear the last of it. So yes, it means plenty

I think Australian Rules Football and AFL has made high in-roads in Sydney and surrounds considering the low base it came from. But the sport still has a long long way to go, let’s not kid ourselves ... but it has taken a few steps and importantly, has started the journey. I do agree with one poster who points out that Aussie rules related shows are shown late into the night and AFL games often on 7 mate. The thing is, when this is no longer the case, the journey will be close up over.

The figure I like to look at is the ratings in Sydney for AFL games not involving Sydney and GWS. That many of these games rate bit at 6 or 3 thousand tells me that is support for Aussie rules in general ... small but significant .

TV ratings continue to soar in Sydney/NSW. Would be great to see streaming numbers.

Ratings highlights from Round 4:

– The NSW audience for the Sydney Swans was up 88% on the average Thursday night NSW audience of 2019, driven by Sydney metro, up 98%.

– Thursday night’s audience in Northern NSW was up 142% and up 31% in Southern NSW.

– The average TV audience for Sydney vs Essendon across the country was 955K (551K for metro, 196K for regional and 207K for pay TV) across Australia.

– Saturday’s match between the GIANTS and Collingwood was 42% greater than the next best GIANTS audience in NSW this season.

*Note: Ratings exclude streaming services (including Kayo)

This is a bit of a conundrum. Can Freddo or beatup please explain. Apparently AFL is 'soaring" in NSW. Freddo goes on daily tours counting the numbers around the Gold Coast. He reports fumbling players, caps, jersey's and interest everywhere. Everywhere he looks lololololol............yeah I know...........but anyway!!!!!

If so.......... why does RL win the TV ratings on a regular basis year to year?? It doesn't seem to be in decline or lacking interest. This year on current trends RL is gonna hand the AFL a right royal whipping in TV numbers. How does this reconcile with the AFL 'soaring' in traditional RL area's? Shouldn't this be reflected in TV numbers?

Beatup.............Freddy...............can you pump up and please explain!!!!!!!!!! Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!

lol

i Live on the Gold Coast too, it is most certainly is dominated via Rugby League.

i would put it up at about 80% League to 20% AFL

Alot Victorians over the past 20 years now reside here, which has helped local leagues.

[Fred]

I’d say 70 /30 but hey. But aussie rules definitely has a strong following at all levels on the GC you’d have to agree.

[NlolRL]

Melbourne would be 98% AFL, 2% NRL
